Hey Kim, All this thyroid stuff is confusing, right? ;) Everyone is different in regards to their TSH number and when they feel symptomatic. I was VERY syptomatic at over 3, other people I know feel normal with TSH 10. This is only ONE number, the other, more important numbers are Free T4...

Hey Kim! I started on Armour, then naturethroid with no results. I had my thyroid removed due to other complications and problems. After surgery, started on Synthroid at 100 mcg. I was ok on that for a while, then noticed I was more tired and not feeling myself. After rechecking my labs...

LOVE mine too!!:D

eh...just saw the movie and it was a total let down. I give it a D+, so looking forward to it too and I dragged my good sport husband with me! :( It was slow and boring in many parts, and it just didn't flow/connect either. I liked a total of about 10 minutes of the movie and I had such high...

Awesome!!:cool:

humbling for sure :o

I'm seeing it tomorrow :D

I haven't watched it yet (just bought from amazon) but I just read In Defense of Food by Michael Pollan who had a lot to do with the movie. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!:mad::confused::eek::( This year we have started an organic garden, we are raising happy and healthy chickens for eggs, and started...

Nan, WOW. What an awful situation!! I can't imagine seeing that note, having to call the police (which was also IMO the absolute right thing to do). Sounds like FIL is in total denial and is probably a ghost of himself...sad You know that if you wouldn't have called and it would have been...

Thanks Kate! The Monster Dash sounds like so much fun!!:D Do you wear your good running shoes and just wash them when it's done or do you wear an old pair?? Any other tips?

I'm considering doing this kind of race but wanted to hear experiences/thoughts. This one is actually called the Dirty Dash-- a 5 woman team, 10 K mud run obstacle course. ;)Looks fun but I have been plagued by knee problems = not a good/fast runner...although I know it's not really all about...

Fantastic!!!:D:D:D

Maria, so sorry to hear this, hope you're dad is feeling better soon!

These sound fun, thanks for the ideas and keep them coming!!

I'll be turning 40 in 6 months (February) and want to plan something fabulous that celebrates life, health and happiness! Since it will be winter time, mostly likely something indoors, however I'm not ruling out a cruise. I do have some ideas but wanted to hear what you guys would do. Thanks!

I treat the zucchini like eggplant for something like that: 1. Slice zucchini or eggplant as desired 2. Sprinkle with salt and let sit fo 30 min to help pull out excess water 3. rinse off excess salt and pan "fry" ( I just use sprays of PAM) until excess water is gone 4. Use as desired in...

Hi runfree! Oh, thank you so much! Well they are good pics, I still have loose skin on my arms and abs (but mostly on my thighs--ugh!!) I do a large variety of workouts--Cathe Muscle Max is a favorite, kettlebells, shock cardio, p90x, p57, bike, walking, elliptical, swimming, etc. I try...

I really know what you are talking about! When I was doing triathlon training earlier in the year I ran into this problem. Here's what helped me: 1. Stay hydrated--are you drinking enough water or gatorade type fluids t/o the camp? 2. When you're exercising you don't want to eat something...

Hi Calee, Well you don't NEED a food scale, but they are nice. ;) I personally only use mine for chicken/fish/poultry portions and sometimes nuts and cheese. Once a week I cook larger portions of my proteins and then weigh them and put them in individual servings. I do use measuring cups...

Connie, you are my hero! :D Anyone who can get through cancer treatment with that attitude is awesome!! Hope you had a great workout and that you will soon be cancer free!!
